Hic Svnt Dracones (Here Be Dragons) Lyrics


The British:

We believed that all was lost

To the shadows of the waves

With our lives to pay the cost

And to rest in shallow graves

Yet our souls still burn with fire

And our dreams are hanging on

Yet our hearts keep beating stronger,

On and on

A thousand leagues beneath the sea

A thousand ages lost to time

In a world that still is free,

Mighty dragons soaring through the sky

Strange creatures alive, long forgotten by man

Here they still thrive, in these gardens of Pan

Mystic stars above us,

In this lost world down below

Not knowing what awaits us, onwards we go

Reaching through time

Past aeons call out

Now hear us loud and clear, show no fear

Rising into the stratosphere

Here, there be dragons

With a breath of fire to sear

We're hunting high and low, fast and slow

Burning stars in the afterglow

Here, there be dragons

Going where the winds will blow

The Vikings:

Here we have reigned, countless years underground

Wild beasts we tamed, and a new home we found

In those nights of fire, when we lived forevermore

By Odin, Thor and Freya, hear us roar

The stars will align

Follow the sign

Now hear us loud and clear, show no fear

Rising into the stratosphere

Here, there be dragons

With a breath of fire to sear

We're hunting high and low

Fast and slow

Burning stars in the afterglow

Here, there be dragons

Going where the winds will blow

Beyond clouds, thousand foreign stars appear

We feel no fear

On this night, sapphire skies shine crystal clear

The end is near

Broken hearts shed a tear

Rising up to the crescent in the sky

Up high they fly

Riding high on their burning wings of fire

Defy! We cry

Dragonfire light the sky

Tree of life, thousand drops of magic dew

We bow to you

Say goodbye to the only world we knew

We bid adieu

Valiant hearts be true

Into the night they flew

Breaking through

Reach for my hand

Never let go

We shall defend

In the cold evening glow

Now hear us loud and clear, show no fear

Rising into the stratosphere

Here, there be dragons

With a breath of fire to sear

We're hunting high and low, fast and slow

Burning stars in the afterglow

Here, there be dragons

Going where the winds will blow

Now hear us loud and clear, show no fear

Magic is in the atmosphere

Here, there be dragons

With a breath of fire to sear

Higher than high we go, fast and slow

Burning stars in the afterglow

Here, there be dragons

Going where the winds will blow
